You have been subscribed to a public bug: I have problems with Synpatic, which crashes often. Then apport wants to file the bug and crashes also (apport-gtk).
This leads to a lot of apport files on /tmp --> finally my complete / partition is full! with over 4 GB of apport-gtk files! Got this many times, always the same procedure: 1. start Synaptics 2. try(!) mark unneeded config files from removed packages 2b. Synaptic crashes, open up the apport file 3. Apport crashes 4. Synaptics crashes again (window was not closed before) 5. Apport crashes ... 5b. Apport writes a lot of files in /tmp ... 6. systems hangs while /tmp (which is normally mounted on / directly) partition is full! .
